backpulse watches your scheduled work and pings you only when something doesn’t happen.
Where to go
Section titled “Where to go”Quickstart — install backupctl, create a check, and get your first verified check-in.
Guides — restic and Borg, Kubernetes CronJobs, and nightly pg_dump. Copy-paste setups.
How it works — missed, late, failed, overlapping, and stuck jobs. The mental model.
Reference — every backupctl flag, every config.yaml key, every HTTP endpoint.
